Burned to Death-_—Almos't.
A very bad,if not fatal accident, from the

who was in his berth, startled by a sudden

I10“-' to Bicep Cool.
\Ve can give no better advice in these hot
days, with “more a coinin’,” than to avoid all

Fire in Ridgefield.
‘Vb learn that the barn of Mr. Rufus Say-
1ncui' of Riiigefield was entirely consumed,
with some tons of ‘hay, on Monday, while he
was lying illiand unable to arrest the flames,
which we are told could have easily been ex-
tinguished when first discovered. It is suppos-
‘ed to have been set on lire by his little son, :1
boy-only 3 years of age, who was knowii_ to have
-been playing with a box of '-matclies in the barn
«at short time previous. Our common friction
matches should never be :placed wit~liiin the
reac-li of children, for aside from the daiigers of
combustion, they are a deadly poison, and the
lfrequcnt cause of death among children.
Accident in New Canaan.
\Ve rogri t to learn that Mr. Andrew Bene-
-dict of New Canaan met with a serious accident
on Tuesday last, in consequence of some of
his wagoii gearing giving way as he was de-
scending the hill near the residence of He-zron
L. Ayres. Esq , by reason of which lie was
thrown from his carriage and severely bruised.
“/6 are glad to learn that his injuries are fast
yielding to rcstoratives and his well known ro-
cupeiiitive energies. It is hard to kill such
men as our friend Benedict, and it.is well for
our world that it is so.
Potatoe Rot.
\Ve ai'e told that: this disease has made its
appearance in some few instances about Ridge-
field, but that in the main this valuable esculent
is free from the rot. Otliei' crops probably
never looked better in these parts; of grass es-
pecially we do ‘not remember to have seen such
heavy yields.
Sudden Death.
Mr. Ebenezer T. Treadwell, a respectable
farmer of \Veston, was taken suddenly ill with
dysentery on Thursday last while in his
meadow mowing, and before Friday morning
was a corpse, his disease refusing to yield to
medical skill.

and after much labor, succeeded in bring-
ing it up, and depositingit on one of the
docks. Curiosity was, of course, cxr:ited,at
once, in that direction, and in compliance with
:i suggcstion, measures were taken to sum-
mon ajory of inquest on the body it was
supposed to enclose. In the meantime, a
large crowd collected, to see what was to be
seen. “Open it,” says one. “ May be ii’s a
case of small pox,” says another. “ lt’s
somebody the doctors have stolen from a
grave,” says a third. “Open it,” repeated
three or four voice-s—and so the process or
opening was commenced. VV'new hoiv aw-

near, and who at the same time clapped his
fingers on his nose. “ Whcw, whew,” was
the unanimous response of all around, and a
simultaneous stoppage of noses ensued. The
lid was finally taken off, and lo !—iustead of
a corpse, there was a small supply of ordinary
looking bricks. 'l‘he noses were all instant-
ly. released, and the crowd dispersed.

Support your Own. _
\Ve have recently seen _several vehicles rolling
through our streets, of such gorgeous einbellisli-A

we were led to iuake the inquiry where such moving
palaces were constructed, and were astonished to
learn what we had never dreamed of before, that
tliey were built by -illessrs, Qnintard_&. Sinitli,gt
our own doors. It has heretofore been :1 fixed fact
that a man must go out oftown to purchase any
illll:g.l)e'_)’Oli(l aliiinber wagon, and many hundreds
of dollars have ariiiually gone froiii us to build up,
beautify and add to the iniporhiiice of other towns
and cities at the expense and impovcrisliineiit of our
own town. We have now an establisliiiieiit (so fall’
as genteel cai'r_iages are coiiccrncd,:it leasl,) which
will and ought to dispense with the coiitiiitrancc of
this suicidal policy wliicli has so long crippled Nor-
walk and kept l)t.'l‘ down at the heel for so many
years. It is surprising to us that our people cannot
see the force of the seiitiiiicnt “ Sui-roirr rook
Ow.-c.” Iiiilividiizil success should constitute the
coiizinon prospciily. [low supremely ridiculous it
is, to say nothing of the itiijii:-tiicss oftlie thing, to
see the policy of some who keep rniiiiing bills of

to do with line rarrizigcs, and what we were going

fcri-cd to, was that geiitlenicn who could turn out
